With the future of Yerry Mina still up in the air, French side Lyon are certain they want the Colombian and are working hard to obtain his signature.

The centre-back knows with certainty he will not continue at Barcelona next season, as the club already reached their limit on non-EU players, in addition to bringing in four more defenders to the squad.

There had been talk of an agreement between Barcelona and Everton, but the Catalans have denied it.

The English club, who are also interested in the player, have maintained contacts with the Blaugrana, but couldn't agree on an amount greater than 30 million euros.

Meanwhile, the president of the Ligue 1 team doesn't trust that information and believes the player's options are still open.

"Yerry [Mina] is still very interested in Lyon and we are confident that he will become our player to play in the Champions League," Jean Michel Aulas said on social media.

There has also been speculation that Manchester United are interested, although this hasn't been confirmed by either club.

The English transfer market closes on Thursday so Mina should know his destination in the coming days.
